Photo(s) of the Season:

We had a panel of several industry judges including professional photographers, marketing managers of our sponsors and other brands, magazine editors, snowboard store managers, and other industry experts.

We asked all the judges to pick their 5 favourite photos, and to give them an overall rating out of 10. They judged the photos based on photography merit - the actual shot, creativity, quality, lighting, colour, contrast, angles, clarity, etc.

A few photos kept coming out on top, however there was no clear winner. One thing was clear; no matter which photo was picked as the best shot, it was always one of Darren’s photos.

I would like to congratulate SnoPics aka Darren Teasdale again, for not only winning Photographer of the Season, but for winning Photo(s) of the Season.

The quality of photos was so high this season! We would like to acknowledge f@tony, Brandy, EvanL, and bran_van, who all received positive comments and top five votes from the judges. We would like to award runner-up prizes to all of you, so can you please get in touch with me ASAP to organise your prizes.

I will be posting some of the best photos from the season, as picked by the judges. Thank you once again to everyone for participating this season. Well done to all of you!!  cool smile

@Brandy
I think you just thought of the next advertising campain for Electrics.  I think that they should hire you as an advertising consultant. smile

 

Does anyone have any contacts at Electrics? I’d be happy to help!!!! raspberry

Real thanks must go to rider for posting them side by side, that was the only reason I noticed it!

I’ll bring you along as chief photography consultant as well Tony!

  WOW

Wow! Again

I am completely stoked.

Thank you so much to everyone involved,
All the crew at Boardworld.com.au, you guys have put together a sick site and cool comp.
All the sponsors (not mine, Boardworld’s, I don’t have any yet….....massive opportunity to get on board with me tho…. wink  )
Thanks to everyone who visited the site, I hope you all become members and contributors.
Massive thanks to everyone I rode and shot with this season, especially the Kiwis, you boys have total patience putting up with some of my demands.
Much respect to the judges, I am sure you guys had the hardest job going.
Heaps of respect and thanks to all the Boardworld members who make up such a fun, friendly and helpful site. Cheers to you all.
Congratulations to all the runners up; F@Tony, Brandy, EvanL and Bran_van. Thank you guys and gal for pushing me to improve my skills with a camera. I was pumped with the standard of the shots being posted…and sometimes jealous I hadn’t thought of the ideas being shown…..sequence shot in a goggle reflection blew me away….
Special thanks to Gamblor who gave me some awesome feedback - I hope the improvement was evident in my work. Cheers buddy.

Sorry if I turned it into a bit of a Logie’s speech…..I’m really stoked and humbled by this all.

Cheers grin
